Sheehan edits Grove Art Guide to Photography

In October 2016, Oxford University Press will publish the first edition of the Grove Art Guide to Photography, edited by Tanya Sheehan (Associate Professor and Chair of Art). A field guide for students, instructors, and scholars, the Grove Art Guide to Photography provides a thorough overview of photography’s history, from the early 19th century to the present. This wide-ranging volume examines photographic practices around the world and highlights key movements and concepts that define the field. It includes 28 geographical and topical surveys, covering areas such as documentary photography, street photography, vernacular photography, and fashion photography, each with carefully selected bibliographies. 75 additional biographies and a glossary of photographic processes and techniques round out this fully illustrated, essential introduction to the study of photography.
